10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!

V2 NOTE: encoding with Handbrake 1.0.7 Yadif/default/default still allowed some noticable interlacing motion artifacts in V1. With this V2 share Handbrake 0.10.3 Deinterlace=Slower was used and motion artifacts were minimized or eliminated. Also, the final encode sizes were slightly smaller.
This is a high quality encode of the most recent DVD release of the BBC's Sherlock Holmes from 1964. Each episode was carefully cropped and has chapters. The 2015 DVD release has 5 episode commentaries, "reconstructed" versions of the previously unreleased e06 The Abbey Grange and e10 The Bruce-Partington Plans, and an interview with Douglas Wilmer. e02 to e12 were encoded with AVC/x264 constant quality RF=20.0. e01 used RF=24.5 and e13 used RF=21.5. All audio was AC3 passthrough and the subs are the DVD picture based subtitles with no OCR. e01 has a 1.0 Spanish dub alternative audio track and there are English commentaries for e02, e03, e05, e06, and e11.
e06 The Abbey Grange episode partial reconstruction:
Of the two 25-minute film reels only the second survives and here 95-year-old Douglas Wilmer reads the opening half of the story to accompany the surviving footage.
NOTE: the e06 commentary only starts after wilmer's reading of the first missing reel at about 21m33s
e10 The Bruce-Partington Plans episode partial reconstruction:
The first reel exists of the episode and the remainder of the episode is represented by an audio recording mixed with extracts from the shooting script.
